Windows has always baffled me with the system tray icons it is too cluttered. I grew up with a tricked out Linux desktop so I understand the need to customize. But most of the time you do not need that.

I believe a VPN should stay hidden if it works, no need to have it visible.

Which is fine if you only have one VPN client or one VPN network and you don't need to turn it on/off or change it regularly.

My current day job has one VPN client but five different networks.

At a previous job I had two different clients I would need to switch on and off.

It is very on-brand with Apple though that there is one right way to do things, and everyone else either needs to change the way they do things or go elsewhere.

I disagree with this one. If a VPN is important, I want to see that it is still connected and hasn't crashed.
